Irisviel, standing to the side, puffed out her cheeks and glared at Wan Di with dissatisfaction.
"Really? I don't need their approval."
Wan Di scratched the back of his head and said with a hint of helplessness.
The others were speechless at Wan Di's stubbornness.
Afterwards, everyone left the place.
As for cleaning up the site, someone will take care of that; we don't need them to do it.
Of course, this red mist that fills the sky can't be cleaned up in a short time, and it's unknown what excuse the government will use to cover it up.
After leaving the beach, Wan Di did not go home, but instead followed the information to Matou Kariya's side.
"Ah, it's you!"
It wasn't Matou Kariya who first discovered Wan Di, but Tohsaka Rin. Upon seeing Wan Di approach, Tohsaka Rin stood up and bowed politely: "Thank you for your help. If it weren't for you, I might have been in danger."
Rin Tohsaka felt nothing at first, but now that she thinks about it, she's a little scared. Luckily, Wan'e intervened and saved the children.
And his best friend was among these rescued children.
Rin Tohsaka's good upbringing led her to immediately express her gratitude upon meeting Mandei.
"It was just a small favor. Besides, you did a great job. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have had a hard time finding the other party in a short period of time. So you helped me out once again."
What Wan Di said is not wrong. If it weren't for Rin Tohsaka, it would probably take Wan Di a long time to find her on her own.
It can only be said that Rin Tohsaka was already very impressive to be able to find Ryunosuke Amusei in the original work, although there was also an element of luck involved.
"It's about time."
Wan Di glanced at the time; more than half the night had passed, and dawn was just around the corner.
"So, would you like to go see your sister?"
Wan Die looked at Rin Tohsaka beside him and said with a smile.
"Sakura? Is it really possible?"
Rin's little face showed a hint of surprise, and her big eyes sparkled as she looked at Wan Di.
"Of course, but we'll have to wait a little longer. Sakura should be getting up soon."
"Mmm! I can wait here for Mom. Mom misses Sakura very much."
Wan Di naturally wouldn't refuse such a small request.
Before long, Aoi Tohsaka, looking flustered, arrived at the scene in her car.
With Matou Kariya's connection, the other party naturally didn't take any detours.
It has to be said that Aoi Tohsaka is well-maintained. Even though she is already a mother of two, you can still see her excellent appearance.
She also possesses a unique charm that is characteristic of mature women.
Honestly, if it weren't Wan Di who had transformed into Cao Cao at this moment, Wan Di would probably have rushed forward, grabbed Tohsaka Aoi's hand, and said, "I wonder if my lady would be willing to share a bed with me tonight?"
"Sir, thank you. If it weren't for you, Rin would probably be in trouble."
After hearing the whole story from Rin Tohsaka, Aoi Tohsaka quickly went to Mantei and thanked him.
Wan Di didn't say much to them, but simply told them to come with him and then led them to his residence.
By this time, after a night of turmoil, dawn was breaking.
Sakura had already gotten up and washed up. Seeing that Wan Di hadn't come home yet, she couldn't help but move a small stool, stand on it, and start preparing breakfast in the kitchen.
Because she is still too young, the breakfast prepared was just a simple sandwich with bread and ham, two lettuce leaves and salad dressing.
However, for a child's skill level, this is already very good.
When the door opened, Sakura was about to greet Mande when she saw Rin and Aoi Tohsaka behind Mande and was immediately stunned.
Seeing this, Wan Di silently walked into the living room, leaving the space to the mother and her two daughters.
Matou Kariya, who was standing to the side, did not want to break this beautiful moment, so he could only follow Mandei.
The two ate sandwiches while turning on the TV to relax.
However, the television was showing footage of what happened last night.
"Last night, due to the aging of the gas pipelines under the sea in Fuyuki City, a violent explosion occurred. At the same time, a warehouse on the shore also exploded. The red smoke still lingering in the city is caused by the crystal pigments stored in the warehouse. Residents are advised to wear masks when going out to prevent inhaling dust..."
As expected, is the gas company taking the blame again?
Wan Di watched the program on TV and couldn't help but want to laugh.
However, although yesterday's commotion was glossed over, many people are still discussing the huge noise they heard last night. As for the red fog that filled the sea today, some immature young people have even given it a name.
It's called... the Crimson Mist Anomaly!
Unfortunately, there are no Western-style mansions here, no silver-haired head maid who can stop time, and no imposing vampires who like to crouch with their heads in their hands for defense.
Speaking of which, the Second Miss's ability to control her purpose does bear some resemblance to Ryougi Shiki's Mystic Eyes of Death Perception...
Aoi Tohsaka and Rin Tohsaka did not linger, as it was still the Holy Grail War. To put it bluntly, the two of them entered the city this time without Tokiomi Tohsaka's knowledge. If Tokiomi Tohsaka knew what Rin had done last night, he would definitely teach him a lesson. The mother and daughter tacitly kept this matter a secret.
"You have to protect Sakura well, otherwise... I'll really hate you!"
Rin Tohsaka wanted to say something more serious, but after thinking it over, she realized that the only harsh thing she could say was that she hated the other person.
To be honest, it was less of a harsh remark and more of a coquettish plea.
Aoi Tohsaka, standing to the side, also bowed deeply to Mandei: "Sakura is in your hands now, and thank you for rescuing her..."
During their conversation, Aoi Tohsaka learned what Sakura had gone through, but now there was nothing she could do but pray that Mandei would protect Sakura.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen with me here."
With Wan Di's promise, Aoi Tohsaka and Rin Tohsaka felt relieved and drove away from Fuyuki City.
As for Matou Kariya, he also left with the two of them. Matou Kariya was not at ease with the mother and daughter going back like this, so he chose to escort them back.
Wan'e was at a loss for words regarding Matou Kariya's choice. Compared to Tokiomi Tohsaka, this guy was undoubtedly a loser, but his actions were somehow impossible to dislike.
All I can say is... sometimes deep affection isn't about flattery...
However, this was destined to be a love affair that could never be fulfilled. Wan Di was somewhat helpless in this situation. He couldn't very well let Tohsaka Tokiomi kill him and then let Matou Kariya find a way to take advantage of the situation, could he?
However, given Aoi Tohsaka's personality, it will probably end up like the original story, right?
After seeing Aoi Tohsaka and her sister, Mande could sense that Sakura's mood had improved significantly.
Soon, it was night.
After Sakura fell asleep, Wan Di arrived at the Einzbern castle alone.
To be honest, Wan Di wasn't really interested in Iskandar's invitation. He had no interest in arguing with these people about the king's ideology. If it weren't for the rewards from the system mission, Wan Di wouldn't have bothered to come.
So, after arriving here, Wan Di did very simply: while watching the others argue about what the King's ideology was, he chugdreds up Gilgamesh's wine cup.
I must say, this wine is actually quite good.
However, what cannot be escaped will ultimately be escaped.
After the group finished arguing and speaking, they all turned their gazes toward him, and Wan Di was taken aback.
"You ask me what a king should do? I don't know. I ended my own dynasty with my own hands."
???
For a moment, Gilgamesh, Artoria, and Iskandar all had a big question mark on their foreheads.
Dude, what do you mean by personally ending your own dynasty?
"Is what I said something so hard to understand?"
Looking at the expressions of the three, Wan Di tilted his head.
"Berserker, when you say you're ending your own dynasty, do you mean it literally?"
Artoria, standing to the side, seemed somewhat unable to accept it.
"That's right, it means exactly what it says."
As Wan Di spoke, he took another sip of the fine wine. Perhaps it was because Gilgamesh's wine was of such high quality, or perhaps Wan Di was drinking too fast, but having nothing better to do, he started to chatter.
"My homeland, Suspended Peak City, is inhabited by believers who follow in the footsteps of the gods. More than two thousand years ago, people who worshipped the power of the Titan Nicardoli, a symbol of conflict, gathered at its foot and established a city-state. The people of Suspended Peak became the blade of the God of War, following in the footsteps of the Titan to conquer all directions. But later, after I successfully defeated Nicardoli and looked down on this history again as a 'god,' I finally saw everything clearly. It was an absurd and humble history. People rushed to the battlefield like ants, greedily plundering and killing, and were trampled on like ants."
The city-state, faith, and so-called traditions that the people of Suspended Peak were so proud of were nothing more than an anthill that crumbled at the slightest touch in Nicardoli's eyes. Their pride was utterly worthless. Then, I took over the divine authority amidst the strife. After much deliberation, I will relinquish the title of king. From the year 2506 of the Light Calendar to the year 4931 of the Light Calendar, I, Medemos, the last king of Suspended Peak, son of Goergo, declare the Suspended Peak Dynasty officially over.
"Is this what you meant by being both a king and a god? The Titan of Strife, hahaha, sounds pretty good. It's just a pity I didn't get to fight it while I was alive. Suspended Peak City will definitely be a powerful enemy, a target worth conquering."
Iskandar, standing nearby, burst into laughter upon hearing Wan Di's words.
"However, having traversed the entire history of humankind, I have never discovered a dynasty called Suspended Edge. Myriad Enemies, no, Madmos, you are not from this world, are you?"
The idea of visitors from another world was incredible, but Gilgamesh, being well-traveled and knowledgeable, wasn't too surprised, so the thought naturally came to him.
"Just treat me and my story as part of an alternate history."
Wan Di spoke softly, without denying Gilgamesh's words.
I really want to visit your world...
Artoria, who was standing nearby, said the same thing.
"There's nothing much to see. It's a beautiful but tragic world where everyone embarks on a journey called 'Chasing Fire' for a vague and uncertain prophecy..."
Just as the people next to them were about to say something, dark figures gradually appeared from the side.
Clearly, an uninvited guest has arrived.
ps
I've gotten really into playing table tennis these past couple of days, and my back is starting to hurt a bit.
My friend has only been playing for a few days and he already wants to buy a Butterfly racket, a racket that costs a thousand yuan... Is this what they mean by "bad students have too many stationery items"?
We discussed it and decided there's a small competition this weekend, so we'll sign up and go check it out...
So I might have to take a day off then, just to be on the safe side~
